Effective date: August 2nd, 2026
Our Privacy policy is really simple. Any information we receive from you will never be shared with anyone else except as needed to operate the Service — including the artificial intelligence providers described below — and we will never use it for anything that is not absolutely necessary to provide the service. For example, we don't share your information with advertisers.
Introduction

This privacy policy has been compiled to better serve those who are concerned with how their 'Personally identifiable information' (PII) is being used online. PII, as used in US privacy law and information security, is information that can be used on its own or with other information to identify, contact, or locate a single person, or to identify an individual in context. Please read our privacy policy carefully to get a clear understanding of how we collect, use, protect or otherwise handle your Personally Identifiable Information in accordance with our website.
What personal information do we collect from the people that visit our website or blog?
When registering on our site, as appropriate, you may be asked to enter your name, email address, mailing address, phone number, credit card information and/or other details to help with your overall experience.
When do we collect information?
We collect information from you when you register on our site, login to Google, subscribe to a newsletter, respond to a survey, fill out a form, or enter information on our site. We also collect information when you connect an email account, calendar, or documents to the Service so that our AI Features can process them on your behalf, as described below.
How do we use your information?
We may use the information we collect from you:
- To personalize the user's experience and to allow us to deliver the type of content and product offerings in which you are most interested.
- To improve our website in order to better serve you.
- To allow us to better service you in responding to your customer service requests.
- To administer a contest, promotion, survey or other site feature.
- To quickly process your transactions.
- To send periodic emails regarding your order or other products and services.
- To power AI Features that extract tasks, dates, and other structured information from documents and emails you connect to the Service, as described below.
AI Features and Third-Party AI Providers
The Service includes artificial intelligence features that read and process content you connect to the Service — including emails, attachments, and uploaded documents — in order to automatically generate tasks, extract dates and deadlines, identify property references, and produce summaries ("AI Features").
To provide the AI Features, the Service transmits relevant portions of your content to third-party AI model providers, including Google's Gemini API, for processing. These providers process the content to generate the structured output the Service displays to you (for example, a task list or a set of extracted dates). We do not permit these providers to use your content to train their own general-purpose models, and we do not authorize any use of your content beyond what is necessary to generate output for you.
The extracted output produced by the AI Features (for example, a generated task, date, or summary) is stored in your account so it can be displayed to you and kept in sync with your transaction. Where feasible, we minimize how long the underlying raw email or document content itself is retained by our AI processing pipeline beyond what is needed to generate that output.
You are responsible for reviewing AI-generated output for accuracy before relying on it, and you may disconnect any connected account (see "Disconnecting from the Google API" below) to stop the AI Features from processing new content from that account.

California Online Privacy Protection Act
CalOPPA is the first state law in the nation to require commercial websites and online services to post a privacy policy. The law's reach stretches well beyond California to require a person or company in the United States (and conceivably the world) that operates websites collecting personally identifiable information from California consumers to post a conspicuous privacy policy on its website stating exactly the information being collected and those individuals with whom it is being shared, and to comply with this policy.
According to CalOPPA we agree to the following:
Users can visit our site anonymously. Once this privacy policy is created, we will add a link to it on our home page, or as a minimum on the first significant page after entering our website. Our Privacy Policy link includes the word 'Privacy', and can be easily be found in the footer of OPEN TO CLOSE's home page.
Users will be notified of any privacy policy changes:
- On our Privacy Policy Page
Users are able to change their personal information:
- By logging in to their account
COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)
When it comes to the collection of personal information from children under 13, the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) puts parents in control. The Federal Trade Commission, the nation's consumer protection agency, enforces the COPPA Rule, which spells out what operators of websites and online services must do to protect children's privacy and safety online.
We do not market to children under 13.
Fair Information Practices
The Fair Information Practices Principles form the backbone of privacy law in the United States and the concepts they include have played a significant role in the development of data protection laws around the globe. Understanding the Fair Information Practice Principles and how they should be implemented is critical to comply with the various privacy laws that protect personal information.
In order to be in line with Fair Information Practices we will take the following responsive action, should a data breach occur:
- We will notify the users via email
- Within 7 business days
- We will notify the users via in site notification
- Within 7 business days
We also agree to the individual redress principle, which requires that individuals have a right to pursue legally enforceable rights against data collectors and processors who fail to adhere to the law. This principle requires not only that individuals have enforceable rights against data users, but also that individuals have recourse to courts or a government agency to investigate and/or prosecute non-compliance by data processors.
CAN SPAM Act
The CAN-SPAM Act is a law that sets the rules for commercial email, establishes requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the right to have emails stopped from being sent to them, and spells out tough penalties for violations.
We collect your email address in order to:
- Send information, respond to inquiries, and/or other requests or questions.
- Process orders and to send information and updates pertaining to orders.
- We may also send you additional information related to your product and/or service.
- Market to our mailing list or continue to send emails to our clients after the original transaction has occurred
To be in accordance with CANSPAM we agree to the following:
- NOT use false, or misleading subjects or email addresses.
- Identify the message as an advertisement in some reasonable way.
- Include the physical address of our business or site headquarters.
- Monitor third party email marketing services for compliance, if one is used.
- Honor opt-out/unsubscribe requests quickly.
